All language subtitles for 7 - CAMERA OVERVIEW

This episode is about the camera settings
and camera overview.

Each camera has miles of menus.

This episode will not be diving
too deep on the menu

structure of specific camera modes
that would take up the whole menu.

We are going to break down
the important settings that every camera

has ISO shutter speed and aperture.

If you can master these three settings
on a mid-range DSLR,

you will be able to jump into a Red
or Alexa app with no issues at all.

Understanding
when to change one setting over another

is going to lead to more cinematic images
and make you a better cinematographer

and filmmaker saw $500 camera
and the $5,000 camera.

Alexa have the same settings, both cameras
that use aperture ISO and shutter speed.

So aperture aperture is the amount
of light going through the lens.

I'm going to break down aperture
into a two part to make things simple and

see how it applies to adjusting brightness
and depth of field Closing down.

It means darker f 22 f16, F 11, F eight
and the others.

Let's let's say it's
opening up and brighter

1.4 f2f 2.8 f four.

With these settings

images brighter, the numbers I told
you are associated to the arbitrary.

If you take apart any lens,
you'll find a series of thin blades

that open and close
similar to the pupil of a human eye.

So when you open the blades,

you are opening the aperture,
which is letting in more light.

It's making your image brighter
and you have more blur behind the subject

and the opposite.

If you are closing the aperture,
the blades would close, letting in

less light, making your image darker and
will let you less blur behind the subject.

Doing this will not only affect
the brightness of your image, but way too.

But it will also change
how your depth of field look.

Let's talk about shallow depth of field.

You will see all the time
in the movies and photography.

So how will you achieve that Look?

This look is achieved
by opening the aperture to F 2.82 and 1.4.

This can be tricky
if you're shooting outdoors

on a sunny afternoon
where everything is very bright.

For this, you will need and feel this
unless you have a very talented,

focused pillar.

Shooting at F 1.4 can be a risky,
but I recommend it to shoot at 2.8.

Sure you'll get desired shallow depth of
field look, but it looks better at f 1.4.

You are making it very difficult
to keep your subject in focus,

but in the end is going to be worth it.

The sweet spot is 2.8.

Deep depth of field is the exact opposite
of shallow depth of field

when you close down the lens.

F 16 F-22, you are in fact making more
of your image to appear to be in focus.

I only use this high number at
the aperture when I don't have any filters

with me, but I don't recommend doing this
when you have a high paying job.

Shutter speed is another setting
to digitally manipulate

the light that you'll have in the shot.

Never go under one over 50
unless you want to shoot that way.

For a better understanding, I recommend
you to try this on your camera.

The desire frame rate for shooting movies
is 24 eyepiece.

This 24 individual
frames of film are being exposed to light

everything in one second
and this process happens very slow.

Where shutter speed applies

in this scenario is how long each frame
is getting exposed to light.

This is important
because if the shutter speed is letting

in, too much light in
your image is going to be overexposed.

Photographers understand
this term the best because in many ways

they will use
shutter speed to adjust brightness.

The same applies to film.

Video rules
say always keep your shutter speed double

as the frame rate,
but I never do this and nothing happens.

So the rules say
if you should 6460 frames per second,

you should keep your father's speed
one over 120 ISO is the camera sensitivity

light camera's ability to shoot
at a high ISO without the image getting

noisy is in my opinion, the best camera
and Sony cameras have this ability.

Also the higher dials so the noisier they
may the image will be lower, iso sharper.

The image will be on the Sony
A7 Smart two.

I also shooting 4000 ISO
and I consider that image just being fine.

I won't go in depth with frames per second
because I always should be in 60

and that way I can do slow motion thing
anytime I want.

Also, the export will always be at 24
frames per second.

White Balance is deciding
which is the color of the light.

Everything from your household lamp,
neon sign in a bar outside light.

These are different lights
with different colors.

I usually keep it at 5600
and change it in post-production.

Friendly advice Don't shoot on auto white
balance at the parties because if you're

a perfectionist, it's going to be hard
to build a line of the same color grading.

Daylight is 5600 kelvin,
so if you set your camera

to 5600, that white T-shirt will appear
white on the monitor off your camera.

But if you decided to shift the Kelvin
to 3200 in the

in the same sunny day,
the white T-shirt will be blue.

So test it out by yourself
and you'll understand the camera best.

The lenses I have are 17 to 14

to 40 millimeter, 24 millimeter,
which is my favorite.

That 35 millimeter,
which is all for my favorite

50 millimeter and 85 millimeter.

That is a legend.
